>>Also, I would add that from my conversation with Bob, he never directly contacts anyone or any locality about anyone for whom he has reason to think there is an emergent situation.

Well, not literally *direct* contact with the poster, but a "locality" .... I think yes, under certain circumstances only. I understand from my past interactions with him that he might contact a poster's ISP and they in turn might contact the appropriate local authorities with specific location info in the case of a real time suicide attempt (as opposed to ideations or even discussions of specific plans) posted about here.

It seems immoral if a poster writes something like,"Goodbye, Babble, I am going to{insert any place} right now to {fill in a recognized suicide method}," or, "I just swallowed an entire bottle of [blank]," and to then do absolutely nothing to try to help save their life.

I think that well may have happened more than once in the past decade. But, it was a number of years ago and I had second or third hand knowledge, so I can't really say more. I either don't know 100% or can't recall.
